Make: maytagModel: MSD275-4GRW Already Tried: I have turned off the icemaker to make sure water is not coming from it, and its not other than that I don.t know what to do
Hi, yes you have a plugged drain and will need to clear it. Unplug unit and remove the shelves. Remove bottom back cover in the freezer and look under the evaporator (metal coils) Use a hair dryer and hot water to thaw out the ice, it will take a while so be patient. Makes sure the water is draining into the bottom pan. After you get it cleared wrap a piece of copper wire around heating element (black rod under evaporator) and let it hang in the drain hole. The wire will keep the drain from icing up again.
